2018 "365"

2018 "365"

Dear 365,
Ten minutes too late.
I just wanted to stay afloat,
But ventured below.

Lost my grip,
But held on tight.
Ten minutes is my hope,
But I never let…

Compassion turn to competition.
Leaving disqualified feelings.
Complaining when conflict wins.
Pushing consequences…

Emotionally, like seasons.
The independent days are rare.
Trapped in others grasp,
While mind starts to…

Hallucinate chemically alive.
Stalking images.
Reaching unfortunate views.
Post traumatic emotion…

Silence discrimination on edge gnawing.
Parallel becoming isolation.
Thoughts divulged nonstop flirtation.
Brain oozes puss of neglected…

Flaws meant to pick apart.
Society ask their friends
β€œWho made that cow?”
Comments that stick…

Therapy is required.
Stretch of days to recuperate.
Mental pictures smear the mind.
Coating image while thick as blood…

Body runs on fear.
Precious truths run sour.
Combination secured.
Leaving emotions spinning 24/7
